2020 Sahrawi legislative election

Legislative elections were held in the Sahrawi Republic on 8–9 March 2020 to elect 52 of the 53 members of the Sahrawi National Council, the unicameral parliament of the SADR. More than 100,000 Sahrawis were registered to vote, with 145 candidates contesting the elections.

Election system
Legislative elections in the Sahrawi Republic are organised mainly using a single non-transferable vote, as Sahrawis get one vote by checking a box next to the face of the candidate in the ballot. Members are elected for a three-year term by direct universal suffrage. ==Results==
